Question:
Honorable Shaykh, may Allah grant you success. The questioner says: The doctor told my mother, "You must stop this treatment you are using because it has serious complications for your life, and use another treatment." He says: When we tried to stop her from using it, she refused and said, "The sick person knows his illness best," and she insisted on taking the prohibited treatment. His question is: Should we buy for her what she was prohibited from?
Answer:
No, do not buy for her what she was prohibited from. Buy for her the appropriate treatment that the doctor recommended. Yes.
